John:

I think I recall a post here where someone had blown
up an XV front end in a rover setup by transmitting on
an adjacent band (as I recall at the 100-200 W level).
 There's just one tuned circuit in front of the preamp
FET in the XV's, so bandpass filters wouldn't be a bad
idea.

By the way, I will probably be including my K2 in my
VHF contest rover setup this year (it got its start in
the Ontario QSO Party this past weekend, on HF).  It's
so much nicer to operate than the current HTX-100 IF
rig !! I'd be interested in any observations of how it
stands up to being beaten about on dirt roads and
such.  The slug-tuned coils and the toroids supported
only by their leads make me a bit nervous.

73,
Steve VE3SMA
